Father's Office 2

Father's Office 2 is a celebrated gastropub located at 1018 Montana Ave in Santa Monica, with roots stretching back to 1953 when the space opened as an upscale-casual bar. Chef Sang Yoon acquired the location in 1999 and restored its signage and interior while adding a focused, inventive food menu from a tiny kitchen. That same kitchen gave birth to the now world-famous Office Burger, a signature creation featuring excellent beef, caramelized onions, and arugula on a roll that has earned widespread acclaim. The bar pours 36 craft beers on tap alongside esoteric small-producer wines, and the intimate indoor setting carries a nostalgic, welcoming atmosphere. The space suits group hangouts and casual evenings alike.
